Paragraph spacing
It seems this happened with the last update, but I could be wrong. I'm trying to convert PRC to ePub, and it puts a space between the paragraphs.
Even clicking on "remove spacing" doesn't do anything....any help from anyone? Is there an easy way to create an ePub from PRC? |

Sure is.. use Calibre. Then pop the ePub into Sigil to edit the CSS to remove the excess line spaces.

Okay, my next question is, what do I do to the CSS?
I can't find anything in there that says "paragraph" or anything like that...sorry, I'm new to the Sigil program, and am no HTML reader LOL. |

Now switch to CodeView (CV) Look at the "class(es) entry for the paragraph.. Note the name. While there, look at other containers (eg <div>, <body> ) that include the paragraph., Now find those names in the CSS. Body class starts it off If there is a line space there, try changing or commenting out ( /* stuff */ ) that If your P tag is inside a DIV, then try that class last, try your P class |

Just use the find and replace tool to replace these with nothing and your spaces should go away. Don't forget to save after your edits are complete. |

Thanks guys, I was able to get things squared away. In the <p> section of the paragraph there was a .5 margin in the paragraph spacing and removing it did the trick
